I like the interior 
Bland yes, set of Coupe Turbo wheels and GSi front bumper could sort that though.

Not buying one just saw it and thought it was a bargain. If I could raise 5k I would purchase it.

I love astra coupe's People say they are bland mine would never stay std. But then what sort of competiion in that price bracket is "exciting" 
Interior is fucking cool. Red leather is sexy. Dont be boring and get black.

I can't see one thing that the Astra Coupe has going for it, except for the fact that they're cheap (which IMO isn't a reason to buy a car).
They're not fast, they've not got a fun chassis, they have lifeless engines, the look mega dull and the interior is naff.
I could live with a naff interior and dull looks if they were good to drive but they're neither one thing nor the other.
They're hugely flawed but not in a charming way.
Get an Alfa GTV. Not great really but they have character and you'll actually fall in love, something which will never happen with one of those Astras.

my bro's one just reminds me of a bigger more expensive corsa but with same quality of ride 
not outstanding cars, i get told the focus is nicer to drive
cars remind me of mobile phones now, just share the technology and make things look more bling

Focus is a great car to drive. IMO the best driving position of any hatch and they're fairly chuckable.
Seating/driving position is strangely important to me

Focus has one fundamental problem, its a new Ford.
Old Fords were nice, new ones are awful.

Focus dash is hideous. I didnt find the driving position very nice either but i suppose its all down to personal opinion and also everyone is different height.
